4-3-8-4. Collision Retry Forever

Collisions Retry Forever: User can choose to disable collision retry forever and,

if a collision occurs in half-duplex mode, the switch will attempt to send the packet

48 times and then drop the frame. When enabled, a collision that occurs in

half-duplex mode will result in repeated attempts by the switch forever.

4-3-8-5. Hash Algorithm

This Hash Algorithm is for hardware maintenance on the MAC table calculation.

This field should only be changed if an excessive amount of MAC address

table collisions are seen. It changes the hashing algorithm for storing new

MAC addresses in local memory.

4-3-8-6. IFG Compensation

IFG compensation: Disable or Enable

Provides the ability to compensate for shorter inter-frame gaps during rate

limiting. It is recommended that this selection remain disabled.
